Crowning American Farm Kings and Queens
gested with respect to decorations,
the selection of toys and the instal
lation of Christmas trees. These
rules are all very reasonable and will
be obvious to anyone who will seri
ously consider the common fire haz
ards associated with the Yuletide.
It may be felt, by some of those who
do not have electric service, that
some of the rules are an infringe
ment on the rights of individuals or
act as a damper to the full enjoy-)
ment of the occasion. A realization
of the hazards, even though they are
permitted to exist but are handled
with due care, will largely remove
the chances for serious consequen
ces. We urge that you bear in mind
that highly inflammable materials,
such as: the customary Christmas
tree, celluloid toys, cotton, crepe
paper, etc., in close proximity to heat
or to open flames, such as: candles,
stoves and fire places are natural
causes which may turn your joyful
holiday into a most distressing period."

Fire Dangers Cited
At Holiday Season
State Fire Marshal Hugh H. Earle,
being deeply concerned with regard
to the possibilities of death, personal
injury or property damage due to
fire caused by the many hazards in
troduced in the homes and places of
public assemblage in carrying out
the spirit of the holiday season, has
issued the following statement:
"Our records show that almost ev
ery year joyful occasions have been
turned to sorrow, suffering or per
iods of regret because of some care
less practice or lack of serious
thought on the part of responsible
individuals. Each year many warn
ings have been published and many
sound and safe rules have been sug-
